Got Questions? We've Got Answers

Here are the most common things drivers ask before booking:

No, never! Tugvan is 100% pay as you go. You do not need to sign up for any yearly plan or monthly fee. You just call us when you need assistance, agree on the price, and pay for that single callout.

Our average arrival time is usually between 45 to 60 minutes across the UK. When you call us, our controller looks at live traffic and our nearest vehicle to give you an accurate, realistic arrival time.

We come to wherever your vehicle is! Whether your car has a dead battery on your driveway at home, a flat tyre in your office car park, or broke down on the side of a busy dual carriageway, our vans and recovery trucks can reach you.

Yes! We regularly help courier vans, trades vans (Transit, Vivaro, Sprinter, etc.), company fleets, SUVs, 4x4s, and family cars. Just let us know the make and model so we bring the right parts and truck.

If your vehicle has serious mechanical failure or cannot be safely repaired roadside, our flatbed recovery truck will load it up and safely transport you and your car to your home address or preferred local garage.

Paying is easy and secure. We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and bank transfer. We provide a full digital VAT receipt for your records or insurance claims.
